Re: Shading text in Frame

[Ananda Stevens <anandastevens@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I always used a one-cell table for stuff like this. IIRC, use a 
TableAnchor paragraph tag, with the font size set at 2, and anchor the 
table At Current Position, with the Space Above Table at -2, then insert 
the table. (This is an excellent job for the Auto-Text plug-in.) The 
only annoyance we found was needing to manually move the cursor into the 
table cell when you were using arrow keys to navigate the rest of the 
document.
